While seemingly innocuous and occasionally bumbling, Canada doesn't have any national diseases (SARS was overblown) needing Sarkozy-strength fixing. Our currency is strong. We are poised, if not to take over the world, then to be more competent in 2008 than we were in 2007.

So folks, go out there and win one this week! Or at least -- like Mike Weir in the Memorial -- come tied for second in something! When in doubt, hire Americans named A.J. and B.J. and pay them a great deal of money to lose for you!

Any fellow Canucks care to build on this list/legacy: the comment field is open. Canada Day is only one (1) month away. We need you.
